Episode 24: The Krotons

Doctor Who: the World Enough and Time podcast

Episode 24 sees Andy and Alex Gond joined once again by Brian Gond as they talk about Robert Holmes first Doctor Who story The Krotons. Andy remembers his first experience of it during the Five Faces of Doctor Who season in 1981, while Alex recalls the video release. Brian meanwhile just makes Kroton noises. As ever, various important questions are asked: Who is the Grumpy Elf? Why is Episode 1 so darn cosy? And, why didn't the Krotons accelerate the Gonds learning much earlier? Along the way there's a quiz for which Andy and Alex join forces, a struggle to come up with a planet that might be an anagram of Athens, and a debate about the correct spelling of Gravitron. It's Gravitron.
